14 January 2021 | Writers of Kern Book Club – Virtual Meeting

By

As we announced last month, Writers of Kern is starting a Book Club for members only! The first meeting is on Thursday, January 14, 2021, from 10:30 – 11:30 a.m. via Zoom. Books will be selected from the NPR Book List and the genres we are looking at are Creative Non-Fiction, Memoir, and Fiction.

We announced originally it would be held each month, but after discussion, it’s been changed to every other month. So, it will begin on the second Thursday in January, then March, April and so on.

If you are interested, please contact Janet Skibinski at[email protected] or at [email protected].  You will be sent the Zoom link and any other pertinent information before the meeting. Hope to see you on January 14th!

19 December 2020 | WOK Annual Winter Meeting | Members Only – BYOB (Bring Your Own Brunch)

By

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the WOK Year!

by Sandy Moffett ~ Membership Chair

December 19th is our members only event.  While we cannot have a hand to hand or toe to toe meeting, we can have a face to face meeting on Zoom.  We will start at our regular time (9:15 am) and we will have a BYOB; bring your own brunch; whatever that might be to enjoy during our time together.  Registration to this event will fill up fast, so be on the look-out for the Eventbrite link coming to your email soon.   Remember, this is a FREE meeting for our members.

We will have a fun writing contest with a monetary prize donated by one of our members.  We will also announce the winners of the Fall Writing Contest, and the 1st place winner’s story will be read to us by our own Dennis Vanderwerff.  Remember how delightful Nelson Varon’s piece was last year? 

The event will be recorded, but it won’t be near as fun without your smiling face present.

One last reminder.  If you know of someone who didn’t renew their membership for some reason, starting January 1st, they can get a half year membership for $42.50, which includes $22.50 for the half year and $20 to reinstate the insurance coverage with the CWC.   That membership will be good until June 30th, and then renewals will be the normal price of $45.00 for a full fiscal year.  

Blessings to you all.
Sandy
